O, let us exalt our dear Lord and proclaim,
In songs of true gratitude, praise to His name!
As songs of the angels in sweetest accord,
Our thanks and our praises shall rise to the Lord.

Lyrics
There are friendships that we cherish
In our daily walk of life
Friends with whom we meet and labor
In our earthly toil and strife,
Friends among the aged and youthful,
Friends that live from us apart  
Friends of higher rank and station
Find a place within my heart.

But I prize the friendship highest
Of the one whose heart is true,
Friends who live by truth and goodness
And who live in Him anew,
Friends whose hearts are up in heaven
Though their feet traverse this sod,  
Find a place of highest merit
In our fellowship with God.

There's a tie of noble kinship
In a soul who loves the Lord,
There's a friendship warm and lasting
If he heeds the Master's Word,
There is mutual understanding
And a sympathy so kind  
In the tie of Christian friendship,
As on earth we oft times find.

When at last these ties are riven,
When we're called to go on high,
Oh, how sweet to meet in heaven,
Friends forever, you and I,
When at last these ties are riven,
When we're called to go on high,  
Oh, how sweet to meet in heaven,
Friends forever, you and I.
